The Magical Name

By Ted Andrews

Llewellyn $12.95

It has been said a rose by any other name would still be a rose. But what does this mean, this name Rose? Does is denote a personality trait, a song, your place in the universe? Maybe our parents though we looked like a Robert of Patricia. Maybe they looked forward to calling us Bobby or Patti. Many of us were named after a relative.

Some of us feel the need for a name that better suits the way we look at our lives now, a name for play or a name with power. Then we ask, What will my new name mean numerologically? Is the name I want the name of some ancient coward or monster? Now we are looking farther than the standard What Will I Name the Baby books.

Ted Andrews attempts to throw some light on the subject with his book. The Magical Name. Within these pages lies much information to enlighten or bewilder, depending on just how deep you feel like delving. With this book you can not only learn to create a name, but a magickal name, a name for a talisman, to impart power, to control your destiny. This was not the most enjoyable book I've read recently, nor the easiest; but if it is important for you to make sure your new name is politically correct, $12.95 is not too much to spend.
